Kim Kardashian’s Son Anointed Saint Robert West & Adele Too Late for Grammys

Surprisingly, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West didn’t keep people waiting for too long, as they publicly announced the name of their son on Monday. Kim was admitted to the hospital on Saturday and announced she gave birth on her website and app.

However, for the days to follow fans were still left to speculate what the it-couple had decided to name their second baby. Yesterday reports claimed that even Kim and Kanye didn’t know what they were going to name him, but had agreed to give him the middle name Robert. Our sources had that one right as we reported.

So, what’s the name you ask?

…Saint Robert West

Funnily enough, many people were speculating that they would go with a biblical name, especially since the baby was supposed to be due on Christmas day. In addition, considering his father Kanye goes by the name Yeezus and has compared himself to God, Saint seems to be a fitting name for the newest member of the family.

It won’t be long now until Kim plasters pictures of Saint all over social media.

On Monday morning, the nominations for the 2015 Grammys were announced. Many of the big names in music were nominated including The Weeknd and Taylor Swift.

So while many deserving artists were mentioned, fans right away noticed that one name, in particular, was missing from the list: Adele. Unless you have been living under a rock, you know that Adele’s latest album 25 has been breaking and setting pretty much every record possible. In addition, 25 sold over 3.38 million copies in its first week, making it the largest single-week album sale since sales have been tracked (beginning in 1991).

Despite Adele’s undeniable talent and success, even she could not manage to get a Grammy nomination this year. However, it is not due to her music; it was because of the timing of her music’s release.

After people began expressing their outrage on social media, the Grammy committee noted a particular part of their set regulations that explained their omission of Adele. The website states, “For the 58th Annual GRAMMY Awards, albums must be released between Oct. 1 2014 and Sept. 30, 2015.”

Adele fans, posts:

WHY IS ADELE NOT NOMINATED FOR THE GRAMMYS. WHY TAYLOR SUEWIFT ???!?!!!

Unfortunately, Adele’s latest music did not hit the airwaves until late October, with her album being released in mid-November. Therefore, she was not able to meet the qualifications for the Grammys this year.

So while Adele may have lost out this year in terms of Grammys, she still has plenty to hold on to from previous years. Adele has already scooped up 10 Grammys, after she won every category she was nominated in for 2012, 2013 and 2014. And with the ways things are going for her, it looks like she will be picking up plenty more awards in the future.
